I just wonder what the owner of this domain should be more worried about:

1. UDRP, US laws against cybersquatting;
2. The bill that has been introduced to limit the freedom of speech about
drugs...

Not having such a domain myself, I am just worried about the free speech
issues involved in both. Maybe that is what it all comes down to, even if
"they" try to convince us otherwise.
